Hey all,
I purchased a Blu Studio C HD smartphone about two months ago. I have been incredibly disappointed by how badly it performs under Lollipop, and have begun to wonder if it is possible for me to downgrade to KitKat or Jelly bean.
Is such a thing possible? I'd like not to brick my phone
Thanks in advance

Hi everyone,
I'm learning to work with roms, and have chosen lloirs excellent build of slim bean 3.15 on the HTC One V. I was wondering if anyone with post experience of working on jb had any advice on things I could tweak or explore the utilisation of on the rom, not just to make it better but also for a good learning experience. So far I have spent the last few days trying to recompile the SystemUI, but today I found the slim jb-apktool, which i thought would hold the answer :'( but to no avail so far. Any help would be super welcome

Hi,
I'm afraid that the rom here will not be compatible with the Samsung Galaxy Young GTS6310, that is without you porting it over. This could be as simple as changing some permissions and library files, or a lot more complicated. Does the Samsung Galaxy Young GTS6310 already have a JB4.1.2 CyanogenMod 10 rom built for it? If it does that could make things a lot easier for you.

Hi guys!
When I realized that the KK custom roms don't support hybrid engine, I started looking into making a port of the Jelly Bean version of Pac rom (4.3) for the Z2.
Seeing how I don't know a whole lot about this type of stuff, I decided to do a bit of reading. As far as I understand it, it is impossible to put JB firmware on a KK based phone, and thus it seems we've hit a brick wall. Would someone please confirm/refute this theory (preferably in relations to Pac rom 4.3, and porting it onto Z2). Porting itself should be theoretically possible according to the dummy guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1941239), seeing how the Z2 has predecessors with the same (or super similar as far as I can tell) CPUs + same screen res.
I have also found threads originally posted for Pac rom 4.3 releases for mentioned models, however they seem to all have been updated to 4.4.4 + the 4.3 build have been removed.
Is there anyone who can tell me whether I've hit a brick wall or just a bump in the road, and if interested, also work together with me to build a port?
Thanks in advance!
Hello all,
I've had my Nexus 4 for over 2 years now and had an S1 since Android 2.2 (Froyo). I've tried Lollipop when it was first ported and multiple times after that. However, I never seemed to like it's new UI, the sound management, and many more things.
I've created this thread to see if anyone agrees with me and would like to provide their opinion.

I hate lollipop too!
Kitkat fan here
I owned nexus 4 two days ago, it was on 5.0.1 and i really love it! I rooted it today and flashed twrp then i flashed panaroid 4.4.4 rom. YOU KNOW WHAT? I flashed back the stock lollipop (backup). I think lollipop is the best! And i am now downloading latest cm 12 nightlies just to check it!
Lollipop is the best specially in my nexus 4
EDIT: CM12 nightlie is amazing (lollipop), now using cm12
You just can't compare the user experience (not just talking about the UI) with any other previous android version. It's just miles ahead and I can say we've finally got a completely mature OS.
Lollipop fan here, and I've been using the green robot for four years as well.
I'll take a slightly broken Lollypop over a stale candy bar or rotten Apple any day
I have a good impression about lollipop in general..i.ll like to try some kk roms but i found that incons are too big..maybe i need to use anither launcher..i dont know..anyway , lollipop is fine..i.m ok with it
Hated It
I tried lollipop for a week, Flashed back my CM11 4.4.4 That is my favorite ROM .
Seems everywhere I look for ROM's or an android upgrade for my tablet, is dry. I was wondering if anyone here knew of a way to either install android 5.0 or at least a rom with a newer version of android? The current issue I have is that the Android version my tablet is running is too old for a good amount of my apps, which sucks.
Any upgrades out there?

Running 4.1.2
Hi Guys,
One of the main reasons I've still got my G2 is because I love Kit Kat. I've felt over the last few years that Google have been going in the wrong direction with Lollipop and Marshmallow. For a tablet, 5 & 6 are good but for a phone, I would miss the preview window when using face unlock too much. (I've tried Lollipop and hated the smart face feature.)
I have few complaints with stock 20H but I know the G2 could be so much faster and smoother like my old Nexus 5 when running 4.4.4. :angel:
Can anyone recommend a ROM that is as simple as stock 4.4.4 and has the latest security patches?
Thanks in advance. :highfive:
